Book Reviews of The Art of Pirates of the Caribbean
Book Review: A big book filled with detailed sketches and paintings
Summary: 5 Stars
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R1VN63BDC37HHA This is a humongous book. In one photo below, I've put my number-pad-less keyboard for comparison. The hardcover has a leather type treatment and slightly spongy to make it feel like an ancient book. The paper stock is thick and there are several fold out pages.
This book contains concept art for the 3 movies for Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, Dead Man's Chest and At World's End.
There are sketches, paintings and some storyboards. The focus of the book is on set and character design. The concept paintings have so much detail that will be lost if not printed on a book this size. To zoom in even closer on the paintings, there's where the fold out pages come into play. The portraits for Captain Barbossa and his decomposed skeletal crew are draw at life size!
There are also numerous paintings for the ships, creatures, harbour and the seas.
Fans of Pirates of the Caribbean should find this book very interesting. Character designers too.
